How tuition works

Sample programs.

By grade

What changes from grade to grade

  • Grade 1

    The smallest group, with a helper beside each table. Homework starts with reading the directions together, and projects are built in pairs.

  • Grades 2 and 3

    Children settle into the routine on their own. The helper moves between tables, and the STEM project has a harder version for children who finish early.

  • Grades 4 and 5

    Longer homework stretches, and projects that last across the week. Older children help set out and put away supplies.
